Carpenter To Return As Reliever


Just wanting a chance to get back on the mound for the rest of the year, St. Louis Cardinals' ace Chris Carpenter will pitch the rest of the season in the bullpen. " "It's just a way of getting me in there and getting me some appearances at the end of the year"(MLB.com), Carpenter told the media.

Chris made it clear that this wouldn't be a permanent move, and that he'd work once again this off-season as a starter. St. Louis should benefit having him for some late-inning work, especially as they attempt to climb into the NL Wild Card picture.
